I spent the better part of my morning working through a Rails Cast on getting Devise and OmniAuth to work to together, with the end goal of being able to log into a web app using your Twitter account. 

Overall, it was pretty straightforward, but there were definitely a few things taken for granted by Mr. Bates, that I had to find out through extensive googling: 

1) OAuth::Unauthorized (401 Unauthorized) issues

A) To resolve these, you should set the Calback URL within your Twitter app to http://127.0.0.1:3000/auth/twitter/callback. I found people suggesting other variation on this, but this particular formulation worked for me. 

B)  Your entry for your consumer key and consumer secret in   config/initializers/devise.rb  should look like this: 

config.omniauth :twitter, 'GjvORl6eEN5YGYMLqNTTPQ', 'v5K5m70tKqsPbS0VR2pUpbJ23kzd53wHicI0sjyErc'

2) Wrong Number of Arguments in Registrations Controller error

I really like FactoryGirl when working on Ruby/Rails projects.  I'll have to give CMFactory a try on iOS projects.

Bonjour, suite au problème de compétitivité que connait la France en ce moment, railscasts.fr va faire découvrir aux acteurs du Web qu'une petite dose de Ruby on Rails améliorerait rapidement les temps de développement.

 Pour cela railscasts.fr a choisi de réaliser en open source et de manière chronométrée, un tumblr-like sous le joli nom de "Diffusions" et tout prochainement disponible sous diffusions.mobi; si vous êtes impatient, plus d'info sera disponible sur railscasts.fr

I just finished Rails Guides: Getting Started with Rails which takes you through building a simple blog application. It's super-fast, and I was able to complete the whole project in just a few hours.

What I like most about it is the sheer simplicity of the project. Unlike Rails Tutorial's "Sample App", Rails Guides's blog app is uber-basic and thus, ripe for upgrades and customization. I feel like much of what I've been learning from Ryan Bates' Railscasts can easily be applied to fleshing out this blog application.

Long story short, it seems like a great place to continue my learning.

That said, it does certainly have it's shortcomings. First and foremost, it does not follow Test-Driven Development. I did not take the initiative to implement testing on my own, but it is simple enough to retro-fit testing into it after completion.

Second, the syntax is slightly outdated, and still leverages the now deprecated "hash rocket" which I reference in my last post. By now, however, I am (and you should be, too!) far enough along in your learning to translate this into the new format.
